This is a friendly reminder that Employer Health Tax (EHT) returns are due on March 31, 2021 for employers with BC remuneration greater than $500,000 in 2020. Employer Health Tax is calculated as follows:
If you are an employer with $500,000 or less of BC remuneration, you do not need to pay EHT.
If your BC remuneration is between $500,000.01 and $1,500,000, EHT is calculated as
2.925% x (BC remuneration - $500,000)
If your BC remuneration is greater than $1,500,000, EHT is calculated as
1.95% x total BC remuneration
There is a calculator here to help you estimate your EHT.
